Pushback

Original title: Pushback
Participated in: MIDPOINT Feature Launch 2024
Country: Croatia

Klára and Péter are retirees, who have been married for 50 years. Klára has been suffering from dementia for a long time and Péter takes care of her devotedly. However, the constant care takes a toll on Péter's health, so under pressure from the family, he agrees to put Klára in a daycare center. Péter feels lost and lonely without the task of nursing Klára, when one day he meets Andrea, Klára's younger, free-spirited friend and they are drawn into an intense sex affair. Péter's life slowly starts to change - while he spends his days discovering his growing feelings towards Andrea, his nights are dedicated to nursing Klára. When the catatonic Klára escapes from the care center and catches the couple in the act, she starts to have lucid episodes. Péter faces the reality: he loves two women, but has to choose one.
